My name is Master Sergeant Patricia Baisden and I am a Bronze Star Afghanistan Disabled Veteran that served God, Country and Community for 28 years, 8 months and 18 days. A very long time if I do say so myself, but the reason why I love my post and my district is because they know and understand the importance of veterans coming together to do something that has absolutely nothing to do with actions of a post of district but instead provide a resource outlet for family fun.

2015 was my first year that I was able to physically participate in the annual Fishing For Freedom event. The weather was awesome, the food was okay, and the fishes were biting. Even though I was in pain the next day, I had a blast. Truly looking forward to the 2016 Fishing For Freedom event.
